They are referring to that as the 'sneak peak', since the high-res video hasn't been transmitted back here yet. http://www.nasa.gov/multimedia/videogallery/index.html?media_id=149974611

A better resolution video has been released. The only place I've seen it so far was Wired Science so I'm not sure if it is 'official'. http://www.wired.com/wiredscience/2012/08/hd-curiosity-landing/
